If we are smart, long shot, his contract says buyout offset by a new job. He has a solid year, then UCLA "steals" our coach.


I dont think Harsin has the "offset language" I know Gus did not. But if an ASU or UCLA come after him I dont think we would put up a fight and might wave any buyout he has to leave.

People say its an $18 millions dollar decision, in all honesty its only about a $3-5 million dollar decision. Even if he coaches this year he is looking at a $15M buyout in Dec so not a big difference from now until then.

I feel like Harsin could be a fantastic coach without BS in his way, but it's very difficult to get that here. He might not be the best recruiter, which I admit is a part of coaching, but his mindset seems to be solid with the right setup.

I mean he was doing all the workouts with the athletes, that has to build some kind of camaraderie with the right type of athlete. It's easy to say do one more rep when you're the guy just standing there watching/coaching them through the rep, but when you are doing it with them you can actually know when they might be at a breaking point that can either be pushed through or can break one down.

Everyone here praised the TE involvement that we lacked, that is very present at the NFL level--Kelce/Gronk/Ertz/Kittle so not having the best WRs isn't always a problem with that added target.

I hated not getting the best WR/OL/QB recruits but Holden really does look promising, he's already in Auburn Football workout social media posts.

I don't know about what's going to happen, no one does, but I believe if we can get through this mess with Harsin it can possibly be something great.
